Mavric Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 With the rash of commits from recruits for the 2015 class today, it confirms what was widely speculated for some time now: There will have to be some current members of the Husker team that will be departing before their full allotment of time is completed. So the question is, who's it going to be? Right now, there has to be two current members leave early. Depending on how many recruits we take, it could be up to five. What's your guess? My first pick is at least one QB. Whoever is third out of Armstrong, Stanton and Darlington will likely leave. I wouldn't rule out two QBs transferring. My second pick always has been TE David Sutton, who would be a fifth-year senior. However, with the new staff set to put more TEs on the field, I'm not sure about him anymore. Mauro Bondi seems to be a name floated around a lot. Also would be a fifth-year senior so he could transfer elsewhere and play immediately upon graduation. After that, I don't see many likely candidates. But I'm sure I'm missing someone. Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Mav, forgive my ignorance but who are are the 2 that are leaving already? (or have left?) Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Mav, forgive my ignorance but who are are the 2 that are leaving already? (or have left?) Courtney Love, and the safety Singleton. I think Terrell Newby is a real possibility, especially if it becomes obvious that Wilbon has jumped him on the depth chart. Other than that, any 5th year senior that does play much is possible (and hopeful). Other names: Gladney, Sam Cotton, and any upperclassman safeties that might be behind Gerry, and Alexander....

NoLongerN Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 We would be sunk as a program if we lost two of those QB's. We need both Armstrong and Stanton considering Darlington might not ever possible play correct? I would think the staff would be all over even a "reach" at QB if two of them are leaving. #BoBurrowFail Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Are we at 19 now? Yes. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Mav, forgive my ignorance but who are are the 2 that are leaving already? (or have left?) Courtney Love, and the safety Singleton. I already have all three of those off my list. With the current 19 commits we are two over the 85 limit so some have to be leaving, just not sure who. Quote Link to comment

Well we've heard it discussed by local reporters; Riley likes to play the numbers close to the limit, and figure it out later. Quote Link to comment

Bigred_inSD Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Remember when Bo was first fired and everyone jumped on the Gerry leaving train? Has the staff commented on Alexander and who told Riley what offense Alexander made? Does Riley want him? Quote Link to comment

He was another one I thought might transfer, but he was so talented, and would likely start. Quote Link to comment
LumberJackSker Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 If Bush keeps making the push he was during bowl practice and Fyfe is kept in the 3 deep to keep the walk-on crowd happy it might leave a couple QBs with no other choice but to transfer if they ever want to play.

default_28 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 The commitment of Alston makes me believe a WR is leaving. One of the Louisiana guys I'm betting. Irons, Moore, or Tolbert. 1 Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I see some difficult conversations after spring ball. Riley seems like a professional. "We'll honor your scholly, but you don't with what we are trying to do". The kid then makes the choice. Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Ganz was talking the other day like Leroy and Gerry would be here. No longer a coach but still. Quote Link to comment
